I was talking about single phase one component flows.
One colleague of mine is working with multicomponent but the major issue
there is still monotonicity.
VOF at high order is a big challenge too.
I know that there are dG schemes that works in case of very anisotropic
diffusion coefficients (porous media applications), but I'm not an expert.

Yes you are right. And in this context the skew-symmetric form is important
to conserve energy.
Thanks for the paper link you posted.
